Thank you very much for your exceptionally informative guide. It provides excellent detail around the composition of soccer balls, different types of balls on the market, and what balls appear to be the best on the market in each category. A really useful website that I have bookmarked for consideration when I am next in the market for a new soccer ball (which will be soon as my old champions league ball from several years ago is getting a bit tatty!)
The cheaper balls only have two polyester layers on their lining. Soccer ball bladders can be made from two different kinds of materials. They can either be latex or butyl. A soccer ball bladder is a component of a soccer ball and it is tasked in containing the air that is within the ball. It also contributes to its shape and the ball’s receptiveness on the field.

Wilson is a great supplier for high schools and colleges, much like Select, and this ball will continue that legacy. Its fused panel and new “hybrid” technology help lower the amount of water that enters the ball, thus allowing it to be much more durable. It claims to have 32 “premium” panels that give you a flight that you can control and predict as well as equal airflow throughout its surface. It is also a highly visible orange, so it will turn a few heads. Combine that with a very reasonable price, and this is an overall great soccer ball for student-athletes.

Size 5 is the official size for professional matches. Therefore, this ball is only available in this size. Do not use this soccer ball on concreted areas. Its unique rubber uses Puma Airlock Valve Technology (PAL) in order to facilitate proper airlock technology. This ball features Perimeter Balance Technology (PBT) which enables it to maintain impressive flight characteristics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2Xn84L3Kcs
